And pink and green and more. No national flag could carry as many hues as we find in LINDA LEE ALTER’s sign art in BRICK BY BRICK 2. But this work is not about America’s or any country’s independence. It's about individuals and communities seeking personal freedom. Lee explains, “My artwork....celebrates the words of Black lesbian mother, activist, warrior and poet Audre Lorde — about the need for us to work together to bring about positive social change.” This Independence Day we also remind you that should you undertake such a quest this year, please prioritize GOTV activism and casting a ballot this November. It's the only way to ensure there’s no military parade taking place on the next Fourth of July.
